Studio 5 Window Display Challenge

Our friends at Studio 5 gave us another FUN decorating challenge! So what's the challenge? Decorate using inspiration from department store window displays! This is the window we picked!

To watch our Studio 5 segment just click HERE !

So we gathered all our string and went to town on these projects!

Instead of changing an entire room, which costs money and even more time, we decided to make some accent pieces to incorporate this fun look into any space!

So for this project you will need
* A Canvas
*String or Yarn
*Pins
*Mod Podge
*Paint or Foam Brush

First of all there are NO RULES to how you can make these! Just go crazy! Here we started by measuring from one corner and pinning as we went to make a partial circle.

Then just brush on your Mod Podge where you want your string to stick (Mod Podge dries clear so don't be afraid to to just slap that stuff on!)

Then just lay your string down and paint another layer of Mod Podge on top of it!

Here's another cutie that you can make without using the pins!

And if you don't have string grab some doilies and fabric!

Thank You Studio 5 for this fun challenge!

Howie Mandel...... How We Mantel!

First of all that post title is hilarious...
 and...Here's a quickie Idea for your mantel! I know your all putting away you're Christmas Crap! Yes, I said crap. Go get that mantel decorated! I covered these books with book pages forever ago and I love them! You can cover any book with pages, put those old twilight books to good use. I use them for lots of decorating stuff. They are a great neutral color, and easy to add to any vignette for height. My mantel is Concrete with white oval tiles, its a keeper! I have lots of project ideas in my head for this year, I can't wait to get them going! If I can quit cleaning toilets for long enough to get anything done. Hope this New Year is full of happiness, organizing, and LOVE! -- B
